DESCRIPTION: Differential pressure flow measurement is widely used to its excellent relationship between installation cost, maintenance and performance. The new designs of differential pressure transmitters, increasingly precise and capable of integrating a greater number of process variables, ratify the versatility, reliability and validity of this primary elements.
Square-edge orifice plates are used for flow measurement in clean liquids, gases and steam with low pressure.
Applications
- Flow measurement in liquids, gases and low-pressure steam.
- For all types of industrial plants such as:
- Energy generation.
- Chemical and petrochemical industries.
- Renewable energy.
- Food industry.
- Water treatment.
Design
- Calculation standards: ISO 5167-6, AGA, ASME FLUID METER and any other required.
- Materials: Carbon steels, low alloys and steel alloys (orifice flanges). Stainless steel and high alloys (orifice plates).
- Size of Manufacture: 2” – 60”
- Flange finishes: RF, FF, RTJ.
Specifications
